Children... what are children?
the bible claims they are owners of the kingdom
In our society they are the FUTURE.
What does our future look like?
The future of this generation, of the newborns, of your daughters', sons, brothers, sisters, cousins....
While we waste food, we tell lies, we live, we grow, we make money, we become ambicous, we love, we hate, we unappreciate... There is someone out there; whom we forget... our children, our future, those beautiful, innocent human beings who are in need, in need for water, for love, for growth, for food, for FREEDOM.
Who am I talking about?
INVISIBLE CHILDREN
Thos children who are invisible, who are not free, who are abducted, raped, murdered, and are forced to become Soldiers, in the attempt they are forced to kill their own family members.
Imagine this:
You are an 8-year old child in Africa, living in fear of being taken away from your family by a rebel army. Imagine having friends that have desappeared who you know are now child soldiers and sex slaves. Imagine going to bed at night and wondering if you might be next; having to hide far away from home to be hiden away... but what if they found you and no one knew? What would you do?
For 23 Years, Joseph Kony has been abscuting children from their homes in Northern Uganda, forcing them to massacre their families and fight in his Lords Resistance ARmy (LRA). The Lords Resistance Army claim to fight for the establishment of a government based on the blibical Ten Commandments... What are the Ten Commandments?
ONE: 'You shall have no other gods before Me.'
TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.'
THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.'
FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.'
FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother.'
SIX: 'You SHALL NOT MURDER.
SEVEN: 'You shall NOT COMMIT ADULTERY.'
EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.'
NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.'
TEN: 'You shall NOT covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's.'
It doesn't matter if you are a religious person.. What matter is the evindence presented.
How Can Joseph Kony claim to follow "the TEN commandments" himself, how can he consider to be rebelling and fighting for them, by abducting innocent lives, of innocent children, who diserveto live for their better good, they way they want to live? The way any child, any human being diserves to live? They diserve to be FREE.
Imagine being those families.. What would you do? What would you hope for?
Imagine : Yelling, screaming, crying, suffering, pain, every single day and night of your existence. Imagine crying out, for help.....
Imagine Being HEARD!
